Cabela’s selects PTC for lifecycle management

Cabela’s is using PTC PLM solutions to manage the entire lifecycle of its apparel products from conception through design, technical design, sourcing, and manufacturing to commercialization. By integrating business processes, workflow and data, PTC solutions are enabling Cabela’s to increase fill rates and improve margins, thus supporting Cabela’s core strategy of improving merchandising performance.

In selecting PTC solutions, Cabela’s was particularly interested in the proven processes and practices enabled by its out-of-the-box capabilities. Being able to implement a comprehensive retail PLM system in a short period of time has allowed Cabela’s to quickly realize value and reduce product cycle-time from ideation to commercialization.

“We take our brand very seriously at Cabela’s and that is why we partnered with PTC,” said Gabriel Garcia, PLM manager for Cabela’s. “Being able to implement a best practices PLM solution out-of-the-box was crucial for us. By week three with PTC, we were already adding design content and adding much more to our apparel brand line.”
